Half-Way Home

About Half-Way Home

Half-Way Home programme was started by Sahyog in July 2020 with 25 recovered mentally ill patients. Half-Way Home provides medical care and other required services along with residential facility.

Sahyog International Foundation supports the Half-Way Home, where residents learn basic skills to take care of themselves. Half-Way Home is a less restrictive transitional living facility for persons with mental illness who are discharged as in-patients from Mental Health establishments, but are not fully ready to live independently on their own or with family capacity to cope with daily living.

The Need for Half-Way Homes

Many individuals recovering from mental illness are discharged from hospitals but are not ready to return to fully independent living. Half-Way Homes bridge this critical gap, providing a supportive environment where residents can gradually rebuild their confidence, skills, and ability to manage daily life.
